Weather in May
Temperature
May's arrival brings a modest temperature shift, moving from a moderately hot 78.4°F (25.8°C) in April to a still warm 85.1°F (29.5°C). Natalbany's average low-temperature in May is measured at a refreshing 65.8°F (18.8°C).Heat index
The heat index for May is computed to be a sweltering 95°F (35°C). Adopt special protective actions against heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Long-duration activity risks heatstroke.In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. The heat index could experience an increase of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
